Viceroy of Portugal Quotes in The Spanish Tragedy
Thus have I with an envious, forged tale
Deceived the king, betrayed mine enemy,
And hope for guerdon of my villainy.
Say, treacherous Villuppo, tell the king,
Wherein hath Alexandro used thee ill?
Rent with remembrance of so foul a deed,
My guilty soul submits me to thy doom:
For not for Alexandro’s injuries,
But for reward and hope to be preferred,
Thus have I shamelessly hazarded his life.
